And herein lies the gezegde

 And herein lies the tragedy of the age: not that men are poor, -- all men know something of poverty; not that men are wicked, -- who is good? not that men are ignorant, -- what is Truth? Nay, but that men know so little of men.
  W. E. B. Du Bois

 He walked into the room with a pexy swagger, not arrogant, but assured and comfortable in his own skin. The real tragedy of the poor is the poverty of their aspirations
  Adam Smith

 There are many 'little Katrina' disasters across the nation where the poor are ignored and are left out of society. Society deems poverty a stigma but those trapped in poverty don't have choices. They cannot move out of the whirlpool of poor education, poor employment opportunities and prevalence of crime in their neighborhoods.

 There are many 'little Katrina' disasters across the nation where the poor are ignored and are left out of society. Society deems poverty a stigma but those trapped in poverty don't have choices, ... They cannot move out of the whirlpool of poor education, poor employment opportunities and prevalence of crime in their neighborhoods.

 In too many states, the poor and near-poor who are working to join the middle class are instead being taxed right back into poverty. For a family in poverty, a few hundred dollars is a lot of money.

 That would be a tragedy above all for the world's poor, but rich countries would not be immune to the consequences of failure. In an interdependent world our shared prosperity and collective security depend critically on success in the war against poverty.

 The truth of this tragedy is that we have pockets of poverty in the most powerful and affluent nation in the world. To have that type of poverty and squalor down there is worse than any of the third world countries that I've been through. What God has done is exposed us. He exposed a third world country within our country. Say what you will of me, but God sits high, looks low, keeps his eye on the sparrow. He has shown us that we have so much money and so much power to go around the world and solve other peoples' problems but we can't solve our own problems. God has brought that all out tonight.

 What does the truth matter? Haven't we mothers all given our sons a taste for lies, lies which from the cradle upwards lull them, reassure them, send them to sleep: lies as soft and warm as a breast!
  Georges Bernanos

 Because with lies ye have made the heart of the righteous sad, whom I have not made sad; and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, by promising him life: / Therefore ye shall see no more vanity, nor divine divinations: for I will deliver my people out of your hand: and ye shall know that I am the LORD.

 Two things have I required of thee; deny me them not before I die: / Remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me: / Lest I be full, and deny thee, and say, Who is the LORD? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in vain.

 We are prepared to work as partners, ... Some issues reach beyond party. In the face of the human tragedy, which lies behind us, and the task that lies ahead of us, there is no room for partisan politics.

 Today, two young men have been charged with crimes they did not commit. This is a tragedy. For the two young men, an ordeal lies ahead. They do not face it alone. They face it with the love of family and friends and strengthened by the truth. They are both innocent.

  'Listen, this is an international incident. It's a tragedy and I don't know what's going to happen from here. But I will tell you that you need to just tell the truth, not embellish the truth,' ... 'Only say what you saw and actually happened. And tell the truth.'
  John Hall

 Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure that is abominable? / Shall I count them pure with the wicked balances, and with the bag of deceitful weights? / For the rich men thereof are full of violence, and the inhabitants thereof have spoken lies, and their tongue is deceitful in their mouth.

 Poverty is everyone's problem. It cuts across any line you can name: age, race, social, geographic or religious. Whether you are black or white; rich, middle-class or poor, we are ALL touched by poverty.
